The Coaching Leader - by IntelliCoach

Please take 1 min to rate this podcast ! It will mean a HUGE deal to me. www.ratethispodcast.com/intellicoach Imagine you had a bad 2 quarters at work where you struggled to make your numbers. You have your half-yearly review conversation with your boss and they say: "well, that did not go so well. We know you are far behind your numbers. I think we should get you some coaching support." When coaching is introduced THIS way, it contributes to a common stigma: Coaching is a tool fix someone who is 'broken'. Let's use this episode to clear up why that is mostly ineffective and even potentially harmful! I will talk about some red flags that typically accompany situations like this:

• The coaching sponsor wants to fix someone elses' behaviors
• The coaching sponsor has never been coached before
• The coaching sponsor also cannot imagine being coached, i.e. sees no reason.

This is important as it will have a strong effect on coaching as an intervention!
